Phoenix Realtors scraps discount MLS access to stay in NAR’s good graces

Splits and Caps Daily: Action for Agents

📈 Market Move:

NAR Flexes, Phoenix Folds

Phoenix Realtors just hit the undo button on its MLS Choice program after NAR came knocking with a potential charter revocation. The program let non-Realtors get MLS access at half the price of full membership—big no-no in NAR’s rulebook.

Now, Phoenix Realtors is back in compliance, meaning NAR won’t pull the plug on their charter. Non-Realtors can still access the Arizona Regional MLS, but let’s be clear: they’re not Realtors, just paying for access.

This all ties into NAR’s bigger battle: keeping membership mandatory. While some push for more flexibility, NAR isn’t budging. Phoenix Realtors got the message loud and clear—play by the rules or risk getting benched.

The $1 Skyscraper Deal – In 1997, Detroit sold the iconic Michigan Central Station for just $1. Why? The new owner had to commit to renovating it. Moral of the story: sometimes, real estate is less about price and more about potential.
